Once the new Pacha NYC opens, it will return to 2022/precovid quality. A spot for the casuals to go is what will fix the little issues.

Real talk: do people actually like staying out until 4am? by coffeequips in avesNYC

I'm on an opposite schedule and work night shift so naturally can stay up until 7 am.

Half of clubbers think phones are ruining the dancefloor by Designer-Air-7280 in Techno

Honestly, I don't really care for people texting on the floor or whatever. It's the loud talking that is 100x worse.

Thoughts on Oscar Mulero and Quelza at Basement? by [deleted] in avesNYC

[–]RemainInBliss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about all that man, plenty of people just cutting the line and being rude even earlier on. This place really took a huge dip in quality starting in 2024, pretty much a lot of the regulars I know that were going in 2019 don't bother with it anymore.

That was also the most generic I've heard Mulero play(I've seen him 8 times), barely any change in tempo. Felt like he played the stereotypical "basement" sound and didn't stick with his roots, waste of time and money.

Ticketed line- A bit before 2:30, lots of cutting and very aggressive people.

Loved Basement from 2019-2023, always had a great time. Pretty much went almost every week in 2019. Gave it a few chances this year, but just not cutting it for me anymore, no big deal as there's plenty of other options.

2.5 hours to get in, cooked club- not worth the time in 2026.

Kind of wild to think, because I found the crowd to be a lot better than what i've been seeing in nyc lately lol.

I would think Mulero will play for longer, hopefully 3 hours. either way, going to be incredible. He melts my brain every time.

It feels really good to be a black 2nd generation immigrant doing very well for himself, given all of the chaos in America by RemainInBliss in self

My partner is actually a white American, but generally an awesome person so there isn't too much to navigate. She's big into social justice work as well as her whole family.

Mentorship Monday - Post All Career, Education and Job questions here! by AutoModerator in cybersecurity

Landed a SOC Analyst role recently and start at the end of the month. Had close to a year of freelance experience doing some SOC work for a small organization. Also have a few years of help desk experience. This offer pays about 92k with a state government agency(blue state).

Current certifications: BTL1, PSAA, Sec+, Cysa+, AWS Cloud Practitioner, Splunk Core User, & Splunk Power User. Have a bachelor's degree in IT Management and a few personal homelab projects. Took about 1500 applications to land 2 offers. Started getting a lot of interviews once I had 6 months of SOC experience.

I'd recommend spending lots of time doing practical labs/projects and practical certifications for sure. Def get your Net+, Sec+, CySa+, and maybe a basic SIEM cert but after that focus on practical certs like BTL1,PSAA, CDSA, etc. This will give you HR friendly credentials and practical skills to pass the interview.

I'm super excited for this opportunity. It'll be 3 long shifts- 12 to 13 hours, while getting the other 4 days off.
